    I just finished this table topper. It's my first attempt at FMQ. I'm very pleased with how it turned out. I did the piecing last year when I first started quilting and it's nice to see how much I've improved. Is there anything I should have done so it would lay flatter?

    I do not know about helping you with getting it flatter, but I am impressed with your first time FMQ.
